Searhive
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
The Searhive are a unique Tyranid Biomorph.[1]
Infesting its host's body, this gestalt organism comprises millions of microscopic spore-worms that exude caustic chemical when they detect non-Tyranids nearby. Infusing their host's saliva, talon tips, and organic projectiles, the Searhive actively seeks to gain entry to the vulnerable bodies of the host's prey. Once within, the worms begin the process of dissolving their victim from the inside.[1]
